netgraph7 - not for release

    I am committing a fresh port of netgraph from FreeBSD.  It will be
    called netgraph7.  It will not be ready for the release but I am
    adding all the options (which I will call NETGRAPH7_* so as not to
    interfere with NETGRAPH), and getting a bunch of the preliminary porting
    work done in the hopes that someone will take up the ball and finish
    porting it after the release.

    FreeBSD has moved most of their ppp, atm, pppoe, and other features
    to netgraph and ours are pretty decrepit so getting this working 
    post-release will be a big benefit to our network stack.

    If not I'll pick it at it.  Once the preliminary compatibility issues
    are resolved the porting work becomes relatively straight forward.
